Corona Native

Corona Native lets you extend Corona beyond the functionality provided by the Corona Lua APIs (reference). For instance, you can use native languages like Objective-C or Java and pass information between the native code and Lua code. You can also create plugins that make it even easier to get native platform features into apps built with Corona.

If you don't need to include custom native code in your app, the Corona Simulator is the best tool to use. Get started here.
